A Quantitative Study of the Secondary Acoustic Radiation Force on Biological Cells during Acoustophoresis.
Article in Micromachines, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We investigate cell-particle secondary acoustic radiation forces in a plain ultrasonic standing wave field inside a microfluidic channel. The effect of secondary acoustic radiation forces on biological cells is measured in a location between a pressure node and a pressure anti-node and the result is compared with theory by considering both compressibility and density dependent effects. The secondary acoustic force between motile red blood cells (RBCs) and MCF-7 cells and fixed 20 µm silica beads is investigated in a half-wavelength wide microchannel actuated at 2 MHz ultrasonic frequency. Our study shows that the secondary acoustic force between cells in acoustofluidic devices could play an important role for cell separation, sorting, and trapping purposes. Our results also demonstrate the possibility to isolate individual cells at trapping positions provided by silica beads immobilized and adhered to the microchannel bottom. We conclude that during certain experimental conditions, the secondary acoustic force acting on biological cells can dominate over the primary acoustic radiation force, which could open up for new microscale acoustofluidic methods.
